Parky Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Not moving the World Cup to the winter... Not the lack of facilities and infrastructure... Not the slave labor work force... No, it's because they are Arab. Qatar is such a disgusting country and has been bankrolling many of the jihadists in Libya, so fuck all of them. It's totally surreal that they might do a world cup. Disgrace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 The basic premise that they can't keep any of the main promises they made to get picked should be sufficient. Plus that the process in choosing was also corrupt as fuck anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I haven't been following this whole ordeal in great detail, but at this stage what's the chance the the two World Cups do get moved? High. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 There isn't really a precedent for this though, is there? Obviously from a common sense point of view the 2022 tournament should be moved... but since when is that ever a criteria in modern football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously from a common sense point of view the 2022 tournament should be moved... but since when is that ever a criteria in modern football. There is a precedent - Columbia was removed as host and replaced by Mexico for the 1986 (?) one because they couldn't pay for it. Personally I think Russia won't be moved - too close to the event and they've done a better job of covering their tracks. Only a matter of time for Qatar though, still 7 years away, and since it was awarded to them so early, the replacement host would get the same amount of time you'd normally have to prepare anyway.

Stifler Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 If an investigation finds that Russia got the World Cup through bribery then it will be almost impossible to let them host it. In that case I can see a EUropean country who already have the infrastructure coming in and hosting it as an emergency. England would then be in pole position to land it with us already being top of the just in case list and us being probably the best bid in the process.

But I meant in terms of the whole organisation/federation behind the backing being the issue. Russia being three years away, plus by the time all this comes out and goes through the whole process of appeals and all that shit mean it'll likely be too late just from a logistics point of view. Qatar is the big one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I wish we get a president in that's not been heavily involved in any confederation or in FIFA. Not gonna happen, but it would be great to just have someone come in and reboot the system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Warner giving a speech on Trinidad television right now admitting guilt and saying Blatter knew everything.

Kaizero Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 "You can't resign and still remain as president. He was behind my fall, I was not behind his. Blatter knows why he fell from grace, and so do I. I will no longer keep quiet on behalf of someone who wants to taint my nation's reputation. They will release all evidence on my behalf, all of it. I have kept quiet. I will do so no more."

Deuce Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I think what I find most incredible is how brazen FIFA has been. Everyone's known about this for years, and they've acted totally nonchalant about it all, clearly not giving a fuck. It'll be grand to watch the smug self-righteousness wash off their faces as they're bummed by the cold, steely cock of the DoJ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
